The Topshop Tea Dress + Wishlist

Black Tea Dress - Topshop

Sunglasses - River Island (sold out similar here)

Velvet Heels - Topshop (sold out similar here)

I took these pictures a few weeks back when I first wore this dress. I've worn it about twice since because I absolutely love it. I think the tea dress style really suits my body shape and its so easy to wear. I love the ruched sleeve and the polka dot detail on this black dress from Topshop. Tea dresses also look great as both a daytime dress and a going out dress. I wore it to a party last weekend with a peach furry clutch bag and heels and it looked so cute. 

Topshop have such a cute selection of tea dresses this summer. I've already bought the red one with ruffles even though the last thing I need is more red dresses! Here are a few of my favourite tea dresses ...

1. Red Spot Floral Tea Dress

2. Anabelle Ditsy Button Shirt Dress

3. Pink Jacquard Spot Mini Tea Dress

4. Daisy Print Ruffle Tea Dress

5. Red Paint Floral Tea Dress

6. Peony Print Blush Tie Sleeve Dress

Horfield Common

pink blouse - topshop (sold out similar here, here and here)

gingham leggings - topshop

Just a couple of pictures from one of the first sunny days this Spring, I wish we could have more days off together like this. We took the pictures in the park near out flat. The daffodils have just come out so its so pretty. It was a pretty windy day so I was fighting with my hair in most pictures. I really love this pink top, the sleeves are amazing. I've had these gingham leggings for quite a while but I thought I'd resurrect them since gingham is so popular this season. I hope you're enjoying the sun this weekend, I'm torn between writing my essays and going out the sun, why does the sun always come out during exam season!

Topshop Festive Look

velvet bomber - topshop

tinsel dress - topshop

Merry Christmas Eve!!! I thought I'd post some pictures of what I wore last night. I love all things glittery and velvet so the Christmas season is one of my favourite times of the year. I got the velvet bomber as a Christmas present and I absolutely love it. As it was so stormy last night I ended up wearing a heavier coat but I cant wait to wear it. I love this glittery dress that I got for the festive season. Both items are from Topshop and both are on sale!

  I hope you have a nice Christmas :)

Zig Zag

zig zag top - river island (sold out)
black bralet - river island (sold out similar here)

shorts - topshop on ebay (sold out similar here and here)

shoes - topshop

When I was packing for Bristol I came across this little zig zag top from River Island that I used to always wear years ago when I was obsessed with sixties style. It has inspired to experiment more with black and white and sixties patterns. I bought these black pointed heels last week from Topshop. I have a lot of black shoes but the pointed toe makes them a real statement shoe. They also remind me of the pointed heels at Miu Miu A/W 15. I'm moving to Bristol tomorrow and I really can't wait. It's going to be such a big change living in a different county but it will be an adventure too. I also can't wait for fashion week!

The Little Red Dress

dress - topshop (sold out)

A few outfit pictures from my birthday wearing my trusty red dress. I think a little red dress is an essential piece in anyone's wardrobe. I've worn this dress from Topshop on so many occasions when I couldn't decide what to wear. Unlike the LBD, the red dress is perfect for the transitional season as it can be worn as a summer dress with sandals or with a coat and boots on a colder day. I've made a wishlist of some beautiful red dresses I found online. The Millie Mackintosh button up dress is just the perfect day dress and I think the Topshop applique dress would look amazing at an Autumn wedding or on a night out :)

1. Miss Selfidge Red Ditsy Tea Dress

2. Topshop Long Sleeve Applique Mini Dress

3. ASOS Millie Mackintosh Button Up Mini Dress

4. ASOS Pleat Mini Dress with Lace Inserts

5. ASOS Ballet Wrap Skater Mini Dress

6. River Island Red Slinky Skater Dress

Bees

hat - penneys
dress - next
belt - penneys

I got this hat in Penneys and I love it, I've been wanting a black floppy hat for ages. My dress is from Next, I rarely shop in Next but I was at the sales with mum and thought this dress was pretty. This Warpaint album is my favourite thing to listen to when I'm having a lazy Sunday. Im closing my depop next week so take a look at my items :)

AM

leather jacket - dunnes stores

arctic monkeys top - camden market

black shorts - river island

introducing my "rock" look :P I don't usually wear leather jackets but I got one for Christmas and I think it looks great with an all black outfit. I really love these shorts, I got them at River Island in the sale in Spring. I'm also wearing my Arctic Monkeys top that I got at Camden market this month :)

Racer

top - river island
shorts - river island

shoes - new look
purse - river island
bag - penneys

 I really like wearing this grey racer crop top, it feels sort of sporty which is not something I usually go for but I think it looks great with these high waisted shorts. It's currently reduced to €9 and you can get it in lots of different colours. I bought these little black heels from new look because I don't really like wearing flats but I also needed something I could walk in hehe I got a new purse from River Island and I really love it, it barely fits into the current black bag I'm using but I think it looks very cool so I don't mind. I'm going shopping in Camden on Sunday and Monday so I bought this big black bag from Penneys. I'm planning on using it to bring home some records, my current suitcase is too small :( hand luggage restrictions are one of the most annoying things about travelling. I'm really excited about going to London and I can't to show you what I find in Camden :)

Glazerr

top - topshop

shorts - river island

sandals - new look

hey :) sorry I haven't posted in ages, I got really badly sun burnt, so I went into hiding (I'm still as pale as ever now somehow) and then I painted my room which took a lot longer than I thought but I really like it. Ill take pictures when I finish wallpapering the last wall. Im becoming quite the DIY expert hehe I bought this top a few weeks ago and I really love it. Ellie from Wolf Alice was wearing the green version at Glastonbury, which makes it very cool. I've spent ages looking for blue denim shorts that fit neatly but I finally found these ones from River Island, they are made from a stretchy denim so they fit perfectly and they have cute little zips on the sides. I found this tote bag from The Blogger Programme yesterday. I got it ages ago but I lost it for a bit when I moved back home from Dublin. They also sent me these lemon flavoured mints from Peppersmith. Follow me on The Blogger Programme if ya like x

Blow Up

jumper - new look

necklace - topshop

denim skirt - topshop

I forgot I had this little jumper, I think it looks sixties-ish when paired with this denim skirt. I really like this necklace from Topshop, I would love to get some similar gold necklaces because I really like the layered look

Maria, you've got to see her

hat - primark

top - topshop

shorts - miss selfridge

belt - primark

Its still raining here but I'm going to pretend that its sunny anyway and wear this straw hat indoors hehe. I really love this paisely top from topshop, its supposed to be worn off the shoulder but it was too cold for that :P

awkward angle photo 

I was listening to this record today. It's the 40th anniversary release of Blondie' greatest hits, it also came with their newest album Ghosts of Download, a poster and a dvd of an early gig at the cbgbs (that I have yet to watch)

I'm selling these boots and some other things on depop, my username is emmamarieod. I'm shipping to Ireland, the uk and Europe :)
